Verizon_PrivOn the BlackBerry Priv pre-order page, it stated that the phone was not available for Verizon or Sprint, at least not yet. However it seems that the version for Verizon could be arriving sooner than we think. According to a photo that has recently surfaced on @apertura64’s Instagram account (via CrackBerry), it clearly shows the phone running on Verizon’s network.

However given that it is always possible to photoshop such an image, we suppose it’s probably best taken with a grain of salt for now. That being said, a couple of months ago it was rumored that the BlackBerry Priv (or the Venice as it was known back then) would arrive on all four major carriers which includes AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint.

Presumably due to the different systems used by the carriers (GSM vs CDMA) that the Verizon and Sprint versions might arrive at a later date. BlackBerry has yet to officially confirm the handset’s release, but based on its pre-order page it stated that it is expected to begin shipping on the 6th of November, so presumably that is when the phone should be available to the masses in case they did not pre-order it, but hopefully with November nearly around the corner, we will find out all the official details soon.
